- Comment on Almost replaced the shell on my brand new deck... got caught out by the display 9 months ago:
Did a full shell swap on mine:
The thing with the screen is you have to pull on one corner (with heat) until that single corner comes up just enough for you to slide some kind of tool underneath to slice the adhesive and separate them better. Then you can move the heat gun around a bit more and move the tool with it to keep cutting through the adhesive.

The Hbomberguy video isn’t about IH, it’s a relatively small part in a much larger video…
- Comment on Did you receive your Deck OLED? 11 months ago:
Got mine about 3 hours ago~
It’s the Limited Edition, and while most of what the reviews said was spot on, it seems either QAM and Steam buttons on the LE are a bit different or something, because they’re ever so slightly raised above the body of the deck.

I don’t know where 2-4 weeks comes from, maybe Canada(Your comment isn’t the first time I’ve seen it)?
The delivery date (at least what I’m seeing) is 1-2 weeks, not the shipping date.
For instance, mine already has a label ready, just waiting on UPS to update for the estimated day.
- Comment on Valve: don’t expect a faster Steam Deck ‘in the next couple of years’ 1 year ago:
Honestly this is a good thing, IMO. If we ever want devs to optimize for a given device, they need to know that it won’t be obsolete immediately. Hopefully seeing that Valve isn’t rushing to make a new device will give them confidence in that.
- Comment on [Discussion] With the recent rumors of a possible hardware refresh, what are your most hoped for changes in an updated Steam Deck? 1 year ago:
The rumored standalone VR headset from Valve
- Comment on [Discussion] With the recent rumors of a possible hardware refresh, what are your most hoped for changes in an updated Steam Deck? 1 year ago:
The APU thats in the deck already has “RT cores”. At least, inasmuch as any RDNA2+ device has them.
Though I really doubt this is an updated deck, and much more likely to be “Deckard”.
- Comment on Microsoft claims: Steam Deck Did Not Need Call Of Duty To Succeed 1 year ago:
I was only talking about your claim that they’re selling at a loss, nothing about success or not.
We don’t know their BOM so its speculation that they’re taking a loss.
- Comment on Microsoft claims: Steam Deck Did Not Need Call Of Duty To Succeed 1 year ago:
Valve are only successful or even exist at all
Only as successful as they currently are.
They would have still been successful based on their games, I think, and without steam to “distract” them, they might have counted to 3 by now.
- Comment on Microsoft claims: Steam Deck Did Not Need Call Of Duty To Succeed 1 year ago:
The deck is only successful because Valve is already successful enough to take the first loss on a console
This may be true(and I wouldn’t doubt it being the case, at least on the $399 model) but it’s pure speculation on your part.
